Each of them has their own views in supporting the presidential reading, and we cannot say that your reasons are wrong, the candidates you choose to be wrong, or the most correct reason for us and our candidates. Therefore, it is the right of each of them in assessing the candidates who will be supported," he said.

Teddy explained that Article 235 paragraph 5 of Law Number 17 of 2017 concerning Elections requires each party to support the presidential and vice presidential candidates.
